Borrelia miyamotoi Serology in a Clinical Pop. w/Persistent Symptoms & Suspected Tick-Borne Illness

This CME featuring Dr. Shannon Delaney, a Columbia-trained psychiatrist physician, illuminates key insights from her study "Borrelia miyamotoi Serology in a Clinical Population With Persistent Symptoms and Suspected Tick-Borne Illness.” Physicians will learn about Borrelia miyamotoi, a spirochetal bacterium causing relapsing fever transmitted by Ixodes ticks. The clinicians will further understand the findings of the study illuminating that B. miyamotoi-positive patients have more severe symptoms compared to those with Lyme disease, underscoring the need for increased awareness and testing for this tick-borne illness.
